I wish to inspire each and every one of you and I would like to share my heart to you as my faithful readers. Beyond fashion and make-up, I am also a disciple and follower of Jesus. So starting today, I will give you inspirations from my personal and intimate moments with God.
I hope this will help you as much as this helped me. :) All for His glory!
FAITH WITH ACTION
So you see, it isn't enough just to have faith. Faith that doesn't show itself by good deeds is no faith at all-it is dead and useless. Now someone may argue, "Some people have faith; others have good deeds." I say, "I can't see your faith if you don't have good deeds, but I will show you my faith through my good deeds." James 2:17-18
You see, he was trusting God so much that he was willing to do whatever God told him to do. His faith was made complete by what he did-by his actions. James 2:22
So you see, we are made right with God by what we do, not by faith alone. James 2:24
Just as the body is dead without a spirit, so also faith is dead without good deeds. James 2:26
- Our faith is no good without our actions. We say we have faith, we say we follow, we say we believe, we say we love… But our actions speak otherwise. THAT is not faith at all.
- Like Abraham who trusted God, who had faith in Him, showed it through obedience. When He was told to sacrifice his only son to show God if he truly loves Him, he did. Though he may not understand, his faith to God is stronger than his understanding. His faith is stronger that it led him to obey Him. And he was being provided for. He became what God has promised him to be. The Father of many nations.
- We are made right by what we do and by our faith. Not one without the other. Faith cannot work without actions. And actions will not work without faith.
PROMISE
If you have faith and acted on it, this pleases God. Your faith has been proven true.
COMMAND
- Have faith and act on it.
- When we hear God's word, we must have faith to believe it and we must act on it. We must obey Him and show him through our actions that our faith is true.
- Don't allow your faith to be dead, keep it alive through your actions.
WARNING
Faith without works is DEAD. It is null and void.
APPLICATION
Be a man and woman of FAITH. Be a man and woman of ACTION. Do not allow yourself to have one without the other. Practice my faith through your actions, AT ALL TIMES. Prove your faith by what you do and how you act and react on things, to people and to every situation. Be a man and woman who has great faith and has proven her faith to God by serving Him and obeying His word.
It's time to ACT on our FAITH.
